Wormholes: Difference between revisions

Line 154:

From the information popup on this wormhole we can tell quite a few things.

* The B274 name means that this is an entrance, not an exit (which would be a K162). The difference doesn't mean much, at least mechanically, except that an entrance gives much more information. For example, [[Wormhole Information|the Wormhole Information page]] tells us that a B274 wormhole leads to high sec K-space, has a total mass allowance of 2,000,000,000 kg, has a per-transit ship mass limit of ~~300~~,000,000 kg, and a maximum stable time of 24 hours.

* The B274 name means that this is an entrance, not an exit (which would be a K162). The difference doesn't mean much, at least mechanically, except that an entrance gives much more information. For example, [[Wormhole Information|the Wormhole Information page]] tells us that a B274 wormhole leads to high sec K-space, has a total mass allowance of 2,000,000,000 kg ± 10%, has a per-transit ship mass limit of 375,000,000 kg, and a maximum stable time of 24 hours.

* The wormhole is beginning to decay, meaning it is more than 4 hours away from collapsing. Jumping through this hole is quite safe, timewise.

* The wormhole has had its stability reduced by a significant amount of mass pushed through it. This is generally known as '''first shrink'''. The wormhole is still safe to transit in smaller ships.

Again, we can tell quite a few things.

* The O477 name means that this is an entrance. A O477 wormhole leads to C3 W-Space (this can be visually identified by the color of the wormhole), has a total mass allowance of 2,000,000,000 kg, has a per-transit ship mass limit of ~~300~~,000,000 kg, and a maximum stable time of 16 hours.

* The wormhole is beginning to decay, meaning it is more than 4 hours away from collapsing. Jumping through this hole is quite safe, timewise.

* The wormhole has had its stability critically disrupted by the mass of numerous ships passing through and is on the verge of collapse. This is generally known as '''crit'''. The wormhole is still unsafe to transit, as it could collapse behind you and trap you in hostile space. Specially fitted HICS are used to collapse the hole.
